Notes:

If your camcorder has S-video, you can use an S-video cable (plus the standard audio cables) instead of a standard video cable for better picture quality. Do not connect both a standard video cable and an S-video cable at the same time, or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

You can also use the S-VIDEO IN or AUDIO(L/R)/VIDEO IN jacks on the rear of the unit.
